This Actually IS a Health Policy Blog………

This set of photos is only to get your attention

While this may look kind of scary, it was life-saving for this man.

The articles are not this gross……hopefully.

Why did I put these photos here ?

Well, it is a bit of a story – every lecture is actually a story. I was giving a lecture at the University of Wisconsin at Madison and asked one of the people I met – a wizard and critic of popular media – to look at this site. “Why is it”, I asked, “that despite these timely pieces there is so little action on this blog?”

Rather than tell me that it was because the pieces were not that good – a possibility ! – he referred to the lack of photos on the opening page. And the fact that the opening page was all text; too much text.
